Performance testing for existing web app - Useful tools?

I'm maintaining a web app that has performance problems.

I want to record a series of actions, then play back those actions once I've made changes and compare page load times so that I can quantify the performance improvement.

The Selenium IDE does what I need for recording and playing back the actions, but I haven't found an easy way to record timings.

Is there a good way to record and compare page load timings using Selenium? Is there a better tool to use instead?
